Critiques
This seminal book was the first to mine the rich vein of Victorian photography to depict a way of life since disappeared. It paved the way for the uncovering of historical photographs by generations of cameramen unknown and did much to revise our picture of the rural past as some sort of country idyll to a life that was rich in experience yet at the same time hard and unforgiving.
